Mike, you are the king of butterflies! This is an magnificent picture. The purple flowers take the topic out again. Light on the side gives the depth. I tip my hat!

Well, I wouldn't say he posed or sat still, I have plenty of poor pictures that show he didn't want me chasing him around. :)
Thank you very much for the comments, everyone!

The best butterfly shot on Caedes! I really like how the color in the wings matches the yellow in the iris...almost like the butterfly is mimicking the flowers. Glad it doesn't have purple on it because it would blend to well:-)

Excellent! Thanks for leaving that bit of room on the right for my folders. In other words, good framing. ;)

Thanks very much, Darryl and BJ!
Darryl - One of my favorite things was the contrast between purple and yellow... the 'complimentary colors' they taught us about in elementary school art class. I hadn't noticed how much the butterfly and the iris had in common 'til you mentioned it. Thanks again to you both.

Nice capture of a Swallowtail Butterfly. Wish I could get close enough to capture one like this on film.
